Boatman Busted

Level 9 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Barny Boatman
Barny Boatman

Kenny Hallaert opened to 50,000 from the cutoff, Barny Boatman three-bet to 150,000 from the small blind, Hallaert four-bet to 310,000, Boatman shoved, and Hallaert quickly called to put Boatman at risk.

Hallaert: {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs}
Boatman: {K-Hearts}{K-Clubs}

Hallaert had a huge lead and Boatman found himself on the unfortunate end of the ultimate preflop cooler. The board ran out {A-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{3-Spades}{6-Spades}{Q-Diamonds} to further improve Hallaert to a set of aces, so he took the pot to stack Boatman.

Level 9 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Tom Waters
Tom Waters

Action folded around to Tom Waters in the cutoff and he raised to 40,000. The player on the button three-bet to 110,000 and Waters called.

The flop came {J-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{8-Hearts} and Waters checked. The button bet 110,000 and Waters check-raised to 250,000. His opponent called.

The turn brought the {6-Hearts}, Waters bet 210,000, and his opponent called.

The {10-Diamonds} fell on the river and Waters shoved for what looked like about 1,300,000. His opponent folded and Waters took the pot.

Hallaert Loses Some

Level 9 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

With what looked like about 300,000 already in the middle and the board reading {9-Spades}{6-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}{2-Hearts} Kenny Hallaert bet 115,000 from the big blind into his lone opponent, Michael Addamo, who was on the button. Addamo went into the tank for nearly a minute before he raised to 400,000. Hallaert folded in fairly short order and the dealer pushed the pot Addamo's way.
